Laurie Anderson / Tenzin Choegyal / Jesse Smith - Songs From The BardoVinyl LP pressing. Songs from the Bardo begins with a bell ringing out once, twice, three times, as a ritualistic chant emerges from the dense silence. The collaborative composition by avant garde icon Laurie Anderson, Tibetan multi instrumentalist Tenzin Choegyal, and composer and activist Jesse Paris Smith is a guided journey through the visionary text of the Tibetan Book of the Dead, unfolding in an 80 minute ebb and flow of sound and words.
